I concur with everything in your post except one item. I am not at all convinced low fat diet is good for you. As an example Eskimo’s eat a lot of blubber fat and have lower rates of heart disease.
A balanced diet with adequate fat and protein along with complex carbs, veggies & fruits is a pretty healthy diet IMO.
In my own example, if I do not eat adequate amount of fat and protein, especially in breakfast, my blood sugar goes higher. And as every one knows high levels of blood sugar will cause a lot of problems including kidney failure, hardening of arteries followed by heart problems. I eat one egg everyday with cheese, and my cholesterol has stayed below 155. FWIW.
Good to know all about curry! I keep curry powder handy and sprinkle it on anything and everything. Thanks for that search list.
